Sunday School Lesson
BY WM. E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of The Congregatlonaltst THE quarter’s lessons and the title of this reyiew lesson as given for young people and adults tell the story of the Son of God with power. Beginning with the interpretation by Jesus of His own Messiaship, with an Easter lesson intervening, anticipating the climax of his earthly service and triumph, these lessons have presented the great dramatic events and experiences of the Christ life. The lessons have, given us not so much a series of incidents, or of chrbnological happenings, as the spiritual high lights in the earthly career of Jesus and in the effects and influences of His teaching and personality. The lessons present a great record of Christian truth in outstanding events the story of the life of Him who said, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” Vital in these lessons har- been the story of the transfiguration with its suggestion of the glory of divintiy that hovers above our earthly life, and that yet seeks ever to link this life of daily experience and commonplace duties with beatific facts and visions. Family Ideal The social implications of the Master’s teaching come out in hi? emphasis upon the foundation of the Christian family, in love and gentleness and in all that good men and women associate with little children. If we could always maintain home and family life upon that plane, how gracious and beautiful it would be!. And how happy, despite even its tears and its trials! In this connection we have the superb picture of Jesus bless- ■ ing the little children and welcoming them to his arms. It is a revelation of the tenderness of the strong man, and it stands in ultimate contrast with many world-famous men of sup-

posed strength who have lived almost entirely, not to bless either children nor grownups, but to work out their own selfish schemes of domination and ambition. We pass in the lessons from these relations of private and family life to the larger considerations of life’s essential values—the peril of riches, the standard of true goodness, the nature of the authority of truth and righteousness and love, the rule of God from within the heart, and the conception of love as the law of God’s kingdom. Then came a valuable lesson on the misuse of national privilege and the Christian responsibility of the individual as citizen. All these lessons have been profoundly practical and definitely applicable to the problems of our life today. Climax But the lessons of the quarter have found their climax and their largest revelation of truth in dealing with the sufferings of Jesus and the last scenes in his life. Here the lessons have emphasized phases of these tragic experiences not always so well set forth. In considering the fellowship of Christ’s sufferings we have had to consider not only what Christ has done for us but what we may do to share his life and purpose. It is here that the meanings a* Christianity attain their highest and that the experiences of the individual Christian find their noblest development. We never can know Christ fully ship of his sufferings, and we can until we enter into this fellow - never find the strength that he imparts to men to battle with life's perils and difficulties until we find his message and his power through this communion. Thus as we consider Jesus facing his enemies and discover the meaning of the Christ, we are brought to the climax of the quarter’s lessons in the study of the Son of God with power.
